ARTICLE III

RESEARCH PROGRAM

3.1 Objectives of the Research Program. The Research Program under this Agreement shall be defined, collectively, by the activities as described in the Research Plan for CNS and the Research Plan for Liver, each as appended to this Agreement as of the Effective Date (or as they may be amended in accordance with this Agreement). The objective of the Research Plan for CNS is for 4DMT to identify [***] ([***]) New CNS Variants that meet the applicable Delivery Success Criteria for entry into validation studies, the Vector Characterization Data from which validation studies will be the package of data that 4DMT is required to provide to uniQure in order to satisfy its obligation to present [***] ([***]) New CNS Variants with the required Vector Characterization Data. The objective for the Research Plan for Liver is to identify the New Liver Variants that meet the applicable Delivery Success Criteria, the Vector Characterization Data from which validation studies will be the package of data that 4DMT is required to provide to uniQure in order to satisfy its obligation to present [***] ([***]) New Liver Variants with the required Vector Characterization Data. As and to the extent provided for in the Research Plan, 4DMT would provide quantities of such New Capsid Variants to uniQure for testing. If the CNS Selection Processes or the liver Selection Processes of the Research Program do not yield at least [***] ([***]) New Capsid Variants meeting the applicable Delivery Success Criteria for entry into validation studies to generate the required Vector Characterization Data packages, then (a) if requested by 4DMT, uniQure may (but is not required to) [***]; and/or (b) [***].

3.2 Conduct of the Research Program.

(a) 4DMT shall initiate work on the Research Plan for Liver and the Research Plan for CNS within [***] ([***]) weeks after the New CLA Effective Date. Any amendments to the Research Plan for CNS or the Research Plan for Liver will be only as agreed by the JRSC.

(b) 4DMT shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to conduct the Research Program in accordance with the Research Plan for CNS and the Research Plan for Liver. 4DMT shall have an affirmative obligation during the term the Research Program and thereafter during the term of this Agreement to disclose all data and other information related to the Research Plan on a timely basis, including, without limitation, all Vector Characterization Data created pursuant to the Research Program, the Research Plan for Liver, and the Research Plan for CNS, as well as the existence and status of all New Capsid Variants generated outside the Research Program during the applicable CNS Term or Liver Term (as applicable based on whether the

- 19 -

variant at issue is a New CNS Variant or a New Liver Variant), and all Vector Characterization Data associated with such New Capsid Variants. For clarity, New CNS Variants only arise during the CNS Term, and New Liver Variants only arise during the Liver Term, even though they, or the Vector Characterization Data with respect thereto, may be later reported between the Parties.

(c) Either Party shall have the right to utilize the services of any Third Party to perform its obligations under the Research Plan to the extent that such Third Party is specifically approved in the Research Plan or otherwise approved by the JRSC, provided that any permitted Third Party must have entered into a written agreement with such Party that includes terms and conditions (i) protecting and limiting use and disclosure of Confidential Information at least to the same extent as under ARTICLE VIII, and (ii) requiring the Third Party and its personnel to assign to such Party all right, title and interest in and to any intellectual property (and intellectual property rights) created or conceived in connection with performance of subcontracted activities. Each Party shall remain at all times fully liable for its responsibilities under this Agreement.

(d) 4DMT and uniQure shall conduct the Research Program in accordance with all applicable Laws, including, if and as applicable, Good Laboratory Practices. Each Party hereby certifies that it will not employ or otherwise use in any capacity in performing any activity hereunder the services of any person or entity known to it to be debarred under 21 USC §335a. For clarity, each of the New CNS Variants and each of the New Liver Variants to be entered into validation studies under the Research Program shall meet the applicable Delivery Success Criteria as defined in the Research Plans unless the Parties in their discretions agree otherwise in writing.

3.3 Materials and Know-How Transfer/Use of Constructs.

(a) In order to facilitate the Research Program, each Party shall, to the extent set forth in the Research Plan, provide to the other Party certain Materials and, subject to Section 3.4, Know-How Controlled by the supplying Party for use by the other Party in furtherance of the Research Program. All Materials and Know-How provided by one Party to the other Party remain the sole property of the supplying Party.

(b) All Materials transferred pursuant to the Research Program shall be used (i) only for the specific purpose provided for in the Research Plan, and (ii) solely under the control of the receiving Party. The Materials may not be used or delivered to or for the benefit of any Third Party without the prior written consent of the supplying Party, and shall not be used in research or testing involving human subjects, except as expressly contemplated in the Research Plan or in accordance with this Agreement. All Materials shall be returned to the supplying Party or destroyed (at the election of the supplying Party) promptly after completion of the use permitted under this Agreement.

(c) THE MATERIALS ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND WITHOUT ANY REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR OF FITNESS FOR ANY PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR ANY WARRANTY THAT THE USE OF THE MATERIALS WILL NOT INFRINGE OR VIOLATE ANY PATENT OR OTHER PROPRIETARY RIGHT OF ANY THIRD PARTY.

- 20 -

(d) At the end of the Research Term, to the extent that samples have not already been provided to uniQure under the Research Program, 4DMT shall promptly provide to uniQure samples of New Capsid Variants that are at that time in 4DMT’s possession. For clarity, this means the quantities specified in the Research Plan, not all quantities of New Capsid Variants at that time in 4DMT’s possession. Other than as may be provided in the Research Plan, 4DMT shall not be required to transfer any Royalty Bearing Constructs to uniQure, unless the Parties mutually otherwise agree in writing in their discretions at a later date.

3.4 Third Party Intellectual Property. The conduct of activities under the Research Plan may use Patent Rights or Know-How licensed by 4DMT pursuant to the UCB Agreements, subject to the terms and conditions of the UCB Agreements. 4DMT shall be solely responsible for all obligations under the UCB Agreements, including any and all payments and royalties due thereunder. In developing the Research Plan, the Parties shall discuss whether any Third Party Patent Rights or Know-How, other than Patent Rights or Know-How licensed by 4DMT pursuant to the UCB Agreements, will be utilized in the conduct of activities under the Research Plan. 4DMT shall disclose to uniQure the details of any restrictions on use or payment obligations of which it is aware that would be triggered by such use of Third Party Patent Rights or Know-How in the Research Program. If the Parties mutually agree to use any inventions claimed in any Patent Right or use any Know-How that is licensed to or has been acquired by 4DMT other than pursuant to the UCB Agreements, and if such use would require the payment of additional consideration to the Third Party from which the Patent Rights or Know-How was licensed or acquired, then such Patent Right or Know-How shall be deemed under the Control of 4DMT, provided that uniQure expressly agrees in writing to bear any such additional consideration actually to be paid by 4DMT to the Third Party (which amounts uniQure may offset pursuant to Section 6.2(c)(ii)) with respect to the Development, manufacture or Commercialization of Royalty Bearing Constructs or Royalty Bearing Products. For clarity, nothing in this Section 3.4 shall limit uniQure’s rights to obtain from a Third Party, independent of 4DMT, a license or other right with respect to such Third Party’s Patent Rights or Know-How.

3.5 Records and Reports.

(a) Records.

(i) 4DMT shall maintain records, in sufficient detail and in good scientific manner appropriate for patent and regulatory purposes, which shall fully and properly reflect all work done and results achieved in the performance of the Research Program by or on behalf of 4DMT (the “Records”), including the procedures, techniques and methodologies used, the progress made, and any Invention conceived or reduced to practice or otherwise made within the scope of or in connection with the Research Program. As part of keeping the Records, 4DMT shall ensure that all of its personnel, and all of its agents that are involved in the Research Program, will keep accurate laboratory notebooks, which laboratory notebooks: (A) shall be duly signed, dated and witnessed; and (B) shall be created and maintained in accordance with its standard operating procedures that would be sufficient to allow for said laboratory notebooks to be used in

- 21 -

any proceeding before the United States Patent and Trademark Office or United States courts, in order to establish the date of invention for any Invention in accordance with the United States patent laws. During the Term, 4DMT shall, upon written request by uniQure, which shall not be unreasonably made: (1) make all Records available for inspection and review by uniQure during normal business hours in a timely manner; and (2) provide copies of the Records or any part thereof to uniQure, as reasonably requested by uniQure.

(ii) In connection with uniQure’s exercise of its back-up right for patent filing as relates to the New Variant Patents (if applicable), uniQure shall have the right to request that a copy of the relevant portions of the laboratory notebooks relating to all stages of the generation of the applicable New Capsid Variants be provided by 4DMT to uniQure. After such request by uniQure, 4DMT shall provide such copies of the laboratory notebooks promptly to uniQure, which shall be maintained by uniQure as 4DMT’s Confidential Information.

(b) Reports to the JRSC. Between [***] ([***]) and [***] ([***]) Business Days prior to each scheduled JRSC meeting, the Parties shall provide to the JRSC a written report on the progress of the Research Program, summarizing the work performed under the Research Program and evaluating the work performed in relation to the goals of the Research Program.

(i) At any time after the expiration of the CNS Term (for products based on New CNS Variants) or the Liver Term (for products based on New Liver Variants), 4DMT may make a bona fide proposal to uniQure for Developing and Commercializing a Product using a New Capsid Variant in the Field to deliver a Transgene that Affects any Restricted Target (each, a “4DMT Proposed Product”), including a development plan and a plan

- 23 -

to finance such activities. Within [***] ([***]) days after receipt of a notice from 4DMT of a 4DMT Proposed Product, uniQure shall notify 4DMT whether uniQure is conducting or is interested in conducting research or Development of such 4DMT Proposed Product, or a Product that uniQure believes in good faith is or would be competitive with such 4DMT Proposed Product (a “Competitive Product”). 4DMT shall have the right to select a maximum total of [***] ([***]) Proposed Products as 4DMT Proposed Products per calendar year under this Section 4.4 and under Section 4.4 of the Amended and Restated CLA, such total to be determined in the aggregate under this Agreement and the Amended and Restated CLA, taken collectively.

(ii) If uniQure notifies 4DMT in good faith that uniQure is conducting or is interested in conducting research or Development of such 4DMT Proposed Product or Competitive Product, uniQure shall within [***] ([***]) months after such notice, deliver to 4DMT a plan (including projected timelines) for the research and Development thereof and, thereafter, shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to research, Develop, manufacture and Commercialize such 4DMT Proposed Product or Competitive Product in accordance with such plan. Each progress report provided to 4DMT under Section 4.3 from and after the date of uniQure’s notice under this Section shall contain a summary of the activities undertaken and the status of uniQure’s research and Development efforts with respect to such Third Party Proposed Product, 4DMT Proposed Product, uniQure Proposed Product or Competitive Product during the [***].

(iii) If uniQure notifies 4DMT that uniQure is not conducting and is not interested in conducting research or Development of such 4DMT Proposed Product, or Competitive Product, then the date of uniQure’s such written notice (or the deadline therefor, if uniQure is required to provide such notice and fails to provide notice by such date whether clause (ii) above or this clause (iii) would otherwise), then this shall be the “Effective Time” for such 4DMT Proposed Product and the applicable Restricted Target, and the license to 4DMT in Section 5.2(c) shall become effective as of the Effective Time.

(b) Step-In Rights of uniQure.

(i) At any time after the expiration of the CNS Term (for products based on New CNS Variants) or the Liver Term (for products based on New Liver Variants), uniQure may make a bona fide proposal to 4DMT for Developing and Commercializing a Product using a New Capsid Variant in the Field to deliver a Transgene that Affect any Non-Restricted Target (each, a “uniQure Proposed Product”), including a development plan and a plan to finance such activities. Within [***] ([***]) days after receipt of a notice from uniQure of a uniQure Proposed Product, 4DMT shall notify uniQure whether 4DMT is conducting or is interested in conducting research or Development of such uniQure Proposed Product, or a Product that 4DMT believes in good faith is or would be competitive with such uniQure Proposed Product (a “4D Competitive Product”). uniQure shall have the right to select a maximum total of [***] ([***]) Proposed Products as uniQure Proposed Products per year under this Section 4.4.

- 24 -

(ii) If 4DMT notifies uniQure in good faith that 4DMT is conducting or is interested in conducting research or Development of such uniQure Proposed Product or Competitive Product, 4DMT shall within [***] ([***]) months after such notice, deliver to uniQure a plan (including projected timelines) for the research and Development thereof and, thereafter, shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to research, Develop, manufacture and Commercialize such uniQure Proposed Product or Competitive Product in accordance with such plan. Each progress report provided to uniQure under Section 4.3 from and after the date of 4DMT’s notice under this Section shall contain a summary of the activities undertaken and the status of 4DMT’s research and Development efforts with respect to such Third Party Proposed Product, uniQure Proposed Product, 4DMT Proposed Product or Competitive Product during the [***].

(iii) If 4DMT notifies uniQure that 4DMT is not conducting and is not interested in conducting research or Development of such uniQure Proposed Product, or Competitive Product, then the date of 4DMT’s such written notice (or the deadline therefor, if 4DMT is required to provide such notice and fails to provide notice by such date whether clause (ii) above or this clause (iii) would otherwise apply), then this shall be the “UQ Effective Time” for such uniQure Proposed Product and the applicable Non-Restricted Target, and the license to uniQure in Section 5.1(b)(ii) shall become effective as of the UQ Effective Time.

(c) General Rights of 4DMT Related to Non-Restricted Targets. For clarity, 4DMT owns the New Variant Patents and has the right to pursue 4DMT Products delivering Transgenes that Affect Non-Restricted Targets, without the need to obtain any rights under this Section 4.4 (i.e., as a default matter 4DMT has the right to pursue 4DMT Products delivering Transgenes that Affect Non-Restricted Targets, with no need to “step in” to obtain such rights, and for that reason, 4DMT’s Step-In Rights under this Section 4.4 do not apply to 4DMT Products delivering Transgenes that Affect Non-Restricted Targets).

4.5 Pharmacovigilance. Within [***] ([***]) months after the Effective Date, the Parties shall enter into an agreement governing the exchange of adverse event safety data (including post-marketing spontaneous reports) received by a Party and its Affiliates, including such data received from, in the case of uniQure, its Sublicensees or, in the case of 4DMT, its licensees, relating to any AAV Capsid Variant provided to uniQure by 4DMT hereunder in order to monitor the safety of all Constructs and Products and to meet reporting requirements with any applicable Regulatory Authority. Such data sharing agreement shall not require the sharing of data that would disclose confidential know-how or trade secrets of a Party or its Affiliates, or in the case of uniQure, its Sublicensees or, in the case of 4DMT, its licensees, if such data may be cross-referenced, such as through a Drug Master File, to satisfy the requirements of Law and any applicable Regulatory Authority.

4.6 Marking. Prior to the issuance in the United States of Patent Rights included in the UC Patent Rights, uniQure agrees to mark Royalty Bearing Product(s) Covered by any UC Patent Right (or their containers or labels) sold in the United States under the licenses granted in this Agreement with the words “Patent Pending,” and following the issuance in the United States of one or more Patent Rights included in the UC Patent Rights, with the patent numbers of the UC Patent Right(s) Covering such Royalty Bearing Product. All Royalty Bearing Products Covered by any UC Patent Right sold in other countries will be marked in such manner as to conform with the patent Laws and practice of such countries.

In the event that a Party seeks to rely on the foregoing and to invoke the CREATE Act with respect to any Invention, such Party will give prior written notice to the other Party of its intent to invoke the CREATE Act and of each submission or disclosure such Party intends to make to the United States Patent and Trademark Office (the “USPTO”) pursuant to the CREATE Act, including: (a) any disclosure of the existence or contents of this Agreement to the USPTO, (b) the disclosure of any “subject matter developed by the other Party” (as such term is used in the CREATE Act) in an information disclosure statement or otherwise, or (c) the filing of any terminal disclaimer over the intellectual property of the other Party, it being agreed that no such submission, disclosure or filing shall be made by such Party without the prior written consent of the other Party, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, except that no such consent shall be required to disclose to the USPTO, through an information disclosure statement or otherwise, any “subject matter developed by the other Party” that was previously published or included in a published patent application by the other Party. The other Party will provide reasonable cooperation to such Party in connection with such Party’s efforts to invoke and rely on the CREATE Act.

ARTICLE VIII

CONFIDENTIALITY AND PUBLICATION

8.1 Confidentiality Obligations. Each Party shall (a) maintain in confidence the Confidential Information of the other Party to the same extent such Party maintains its own confidential information, (b) not disclose such Confidential Information to any Third Party without the prior written consent of the other Party, and (c) not use such Confidential Information for any purpose except those permitted by this Agreement. Such obligations shall survive for a period of [***] ([***]) years after termination or expiration of this Agreement, except that such obligations shall survive with respect to any Confidential Information identified by the disclosing Party as a trade secret for so long as such Confidential Information remains a trade secret.

8.2 Exceptions to Confidentiality. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the obligations of confidentiality set forth in Section 8.1 shall not apply to information that, in each case as demonstrated by competent written documentation:

(a) is publicly disclosed or made generally available to the public by the disclosing Party, either before or after it becomes known to the receiving Party;

(b) was known to the receiving Party, without any obligation to keep it confidential, prior to the date of first disclosure by the disclosing Party to the receiving Party, as shown by the receiving Party’s files and records;

- 45 -

(c) is subsequently disclosed to the receiving Party by a Third Party lawfully in possession thereof without obligation to keep it confidential and without a breach of such Third Party’s obligations of confidentiality;

(d) has been publicly disclosed or made generally available to the public other than through any act or omission of the receiving Party or its Affiliates in breach of this Agreement; or

(e) has been independently developed by the receiving Party without the aid, application or use of the disclosing Party’s Confidential Information (the competent written proof of which must be contemporaneous with such independent development).

8.3 Authorized Disclosure. Notwithstanding Section 8.1, a Party may disclose Confidential Information of the other Party to the extent such disclosure is reasonably necessary in the following instances:

(a) Prosecuting and Maintaining Patent Rights in accordance with this Agreement;

(b) making filings with Regulatory Authorities in accordance with this Agreement;

(c) complying with applicable Laws or submitting information to tax or other Governmental Authorities; provided that if a Party is required by Law to make any public disclosure of Confidential Information of the other Party, to the extent it may legally do so, it will give reasonable advance notice to the other Party of such disclosure and will use its reasonable efforts to secure confidential treatment of such Confidential Information prior to its disclosure (whether through protective orders or otherwise);

(d) to its Affiliates, and to prospective and actual acquirers, licensees, sublicensees, employees, consultants, agents, accountants, lawyers, advisors, investors and underwriters, on a need to know basis, each of whom prior to disclosure must be bound by written or professional ethical obligations of confidentiality and non-use equivalent in scope to those set forth in this ARTICLE VIII and that are of reasonable duration in view of the circumstances of the disclosure; or

(e) to the extent mutually agreed to in writing by the Parties.

8.4 Scientific Publications. During the Research Term, neither Party shall first publish or first present in a public forum the scientific or technical results of any activity performed pursuant to this Agreement without the opportunity for prior review and comment by and obtaining the permission of the other Party, except that either Party may publish or first present in a public forum any information related to the Research Program and/or any pre-clinical or clinical results obtained by such Party pertaining to any New Capsid Variants, without the need to obtain the other Party’s review or permission, provided that the publication or presentation does not disclose the sequence of any New Capsid Variant for which a Patent Right has not yet been filed under this Agreement, and provided in the case of uniQure that the publication must

- 46 -

only present data and information as to a Royalty-Bearing Construct or Royalty-Bearing Product for which uniQure at that time holds a commercialization license under this Agreement, not a New Capsid Variant outside the context of a Royalty-Bearing Construct or Royalty-Bearing Product for which uniQure at that time holds a commercialization license under this Agreement.

8.5 Press Releases and Other Permitted Disclosures.

(a) 4DMT and uniQure each agree not to disclose any of the terms and conditions of this Agreement to any Third Party, except as described below in this Section 8.5. The Parties will cooperate in the release of a mutually agreed upon press release announcing the collaboration contemplated by this Agreement as soon as practicable after the Effective Date. Subject to the other provisions of this Agreement, no other press release, public statement or public disclosure concerning the existence or terms of this Agreement shall be made, either directly or indirectly, by either Party, without first obtaining the written approval of the other Party, which such approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed beyond [***] ([***]) Business Days (or [***] ([***]) Business Days if the Party wishing to make such disclosure or any of its controlling Affiliates is then a public company) following submission to the approving Party of a draft of the respective press release, public statement or public disclosure. In no event shall any such subsequent press release, public statement or public disclosure by 4DMT disclose, if previously undisclosed, the identity of any Construct or Product or the stage of development of any Construct or Product that uniQure is researching, Developing, manufacturing, or Commercializing; provided that for clarity, uniQure may disclose, without the written approval of 4DMT, the identity of any Construct or Product or the stage of development of any Construct or Product that uniQure is researching, Developing, manufacturing, or Commercializing. In no event shall any such subsequent press release, public statement or public disclosure by a Party disclose, if previously undisclosed, the financial terms of this Agreement; provided that 4DMT may disclose the receipt of, and uniQure may disclose the payment of, any payment but not the amount of such payment; provided, further, however, that if disclosure of the amount of a payment is required by applicable Law, by applicable stock exchange regulation, or by order or other ruling of a competent court, as set forth in Section 8.5(c), then 4DMT or uniQure, as the case may be, may also disclose such amount in a public statement or disclosure. Once any public statement or public disclosure has been approved in accordance with this Section 8.5, then either Party may appropriately communicate information contained in such permitted statement or disclosure.

(b) Either Party may disclose the existence and terms of this Agreement in confidence to its attorneys, to UC, and to each of the following, under an agreement with terms of confidentiality and non-use no less rigorous than the terms contained in this Agreement and, as applicable, to use such information solely for the purpose permitted pursuant to the applicable subsection of this Section 8.5(b):

(i) professional accountants, consultants, or auditors;

(ii) bankers or other financial advisors, in connection with an initial public offering, private financing or other strategic transaction, or corporate valuation for internal purposes;

- 47 -

(iii) potential acquirers (and their respective attorneys and professional advisors), in connection with a potential merger, acquisition or reorganization; provided that the Party making the disclosure has a bona fide offer (e.g., a signed term sheet or letter of intent, even if non-binding) from such Third Party for such a transaction;

(iv) to actual or potential investors, lenders or permitted assignees of such Party (and their respective attorneys and professional advisors); or

(v) to actual or potential licensees or sublicensees of such Party (and their respective attorneys and professional advisors); provided that such disclosure in the case of 4DMT shall not include any financial terms, the Delivery Success Criteria, nor any other contents of the Research Plan for Liver nor the Research Plan for CNS.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this ARTICLE VIII, a Party may disclose the existence and terms of this Agreement, however excluding, as far as legally possible, Schedule 2, or the Parties’ activities under this Agreement, where required, as reasonably determined by the legal counsel of the disclosing Party, by applicable Law, by applicable stock exchange regulation or by order or other ruling of a competent court, although, to the extent practicable, the other Party shall be given [***] ([***]) Business Days advance notice of any such legally required disclosure to comment and reasonably consider such comments provided by such other Party on the proposed disclosure. In case either Party is obliged to publish this Agreement as a “material agreement” in accordance with the U.S. stock exchange regulations (“SEC Filing”), this Agreement shall be redacted by the filing Party as far as legally possible, and the filing Party shall cooperate with the other Party reasonably in advance to such SEC Filing to enable the other Party to review and comment on the scope of such redaction.

EXCEPT WITH RESPECT TO (a) THE INDEMNIFICATION RIGHTS OR OBLIGATIONS OF EITHER PARTY UNDER THIS AGREEMENT WITH RESPECT TO THIRD PARTY CLAIMS, (b) A BREACH OF THE CONFIDENTIALITY OBLIGATIONS OF ARTICLE VIII, (c) A BREACH OF SECTION 5.6, OR (d) A PARTY’S WILLFUL MISCONDUCT, NEITHER PARTY HERETO WILL BE LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING LOST PROFITS, ARISING FROM OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, REGARDLESS OF ANY NOTICE OF SUCH DAMAGES.

ARTICLE X

TERM AND TERMINATION

10.1 Term and Expiration. This Agreement shall be effective as of the Effective Date and unless terminated earlier pursuant to Section 10.2, this Agreement shall continue in effect until the expiration of all of uniQure’s and 4DMT’s payment obligations hereunder (the “Term”). Upon expiration, all licenses granted hereunder shall be fully paid-up, perpetual and irrevocable.

10.2 Termination.

(a) Termination of Agreement for Cause.

(i) This Agreement may be terminated at any time during the Term upon written notice by either Party (the “Non-Defaulting Party”) upon Default of the other Party (the “Defaulting Party”), which Default remains uncured for ninety (90) days after written notice requesting cure of such Default. The Non-Defaulting Party shall provide written notice to the Defaulting Party, which notice shall identify the Default, the intent to so terminate and the actions or conduct that it considers would be an acceptable cure of such Default. If the Defaulting Party disputes the Default under this Section 10.2(a), then the issue of whether the Non-Defaulting Party may properly terminate this Agreement on expiration of the applicable cure period shall be resolved in accordance with ARTICLE XI. If, as a result of such dispute resolution process, it is determined that the alleged Defaulting Party committed a Default and the Defaulting Party does not cure such Default within sixty (60) days after the date of such dispute resolution award (the “Additional Cure Period”), then such termination shall be effective as of the expiration of the Additional Cure Period. If the Parties dispute whether such Default was so cured, either Party alone may request the same tribunal to determine whether it was so cured, and the Parties shall cooperate to allow such determination to be made within thirty (30) days after such request by either Party. Any such dispute resolution proceeding does not suspend any obligation of either Party hereunder, and each Party shall use reasonable efforts to mitigate any damage. If, as a result of any such dispute resolution proceeding, it is determined that the alleged Defaulting Party did not commit such Default (or such Default was cured in accordance with this Section 10.2(a)), then no termination shall be effective, and this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect.

- 54 -

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the claimed Default relates to one or more Royalty-Bearing Constructs or Royalty-Bearing Products, and not this entire Agreement, then this Agreement shall be terminated only with respect to the Indication for which such Royalty-Bearing Construct(s) or Royalty-Bearing Product(s) were intended to treat and if uniQure was the Defaulting Party then additionally such Indication shall be removed from the Field.

(b) Termination for Bankruptcy. To the extent allowed under applicable Law, either Party shall have the right to terminate this Agreement in the event of the commencement of any proceeding in or for bankruptcy, insolvency, dissolution or winding up by or against the other Party (other than pursuant to a corporate restructuring) that is not dismissed or otherwise disposed of within sixty (60) days thereafter.

(c) Termination for Futility. uniQure shall have the right terminate this Agreement immediately upon written notice to 4DMT summarizing the basis for such termination if, at any point prior to the first (1^st) anniversary of the Effective Date, the JRSC determines that (i) it would be futile to continue the Research Program, including if the JRSC determines that any Delivery Success Criteria cannot be met through use of the 4DMT Intellectual Property following the reasonable efforts of 4DMT to achieve such Delivery Success Criteria or (ii) 4DMT is not making bona fide efforts to achieve the timelines set forth in the Research Plan.

(d) Termination for Convenience. uniQure shall have the right terminate this Agreement at any time after the Research Term, for any reason or for no reason, by giving 4DMT ninety (90) days’ prior written notice thereof.

10.3 Effect of Termination

(a) If uniQure terminates this Agreement under Section 10.2(a) or Section 10.2(b):

(i) uniQure’s licenses pursuant to this Agreement shall continue; provided however that uniQure shall continue to fulfill uniQure’s payment obligations with respect to royalties and Sublicense Consideration under ARTICLE VI; and provided further that uniQure may reduce such payment obligations by the amount of monetary damage suffered by uniQure as a direct result of 4DMT’s Default, as determined (A) in a final decision of the arbitrators in accordance with Section 11.2 or, with respect to an Excluded Claim, a court of competent jurisdiction, which decision is not appealable or has not been appealed within the time allowed for appeal, or (B) by the Parties in a settlement agreement;

(ii) 4DMT shall, within [***] ([***]) days after the effective date of such termination, return or cause to be returned to uniQure, copies of all uniQure’s Confidential Information and uniQure Intellectual Property and all Materials provided by uniQure, except that 4DMT may retain one copy of uniQure’s Confidential Information solely for legal archive purposes and to exercise the licenses granted to 4DMT which survive termination of this Agreement;

- 55 -

(iii) For clarity, uniQure shall be released of its ongoing diligence obligations under Section 4.4 (if any) and uniQure and 4DMT shall be released of their disclosure and information exchange obligations under ARTICLE III and ARTICLE IV;

(iv) For clarity, the JRSC and its subcommittees shall not meet anymore; and

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if such termination is under Section 10.2(a) solely with respect to one or more given Indication(s), then uniQure’s licenses pursuant to Section 5.1 will not terminate but the Field is automatically narrowed to exclude the relevant Indication(s); the license granted to 4DMT under Section 5.2(b) shall be automatically adjusted to include the relevant Indication(s) rather than all fields of use; and uniQure’s obligations under subsection (ii) shall be limited to copies of 4DMT’s Confidential Information and 4DMT Intellectual Property and Materials that relate solely to the relevant Indication(s).

(b) Upon termination of this Agreement by uniQure under Section 10.2(c) or Section 10.2(d), or by 4DMT under Section 10.2(a) or Section 10.2(b):

(i) For clarity, uniQure’s licenses pursuant to Section 5.1 and Step-In Rights under Section 4.4 shall terminate as of the effective date of such termination;

(ii) Effective as of the effective date of such termination, the license granted to 4DMT under Section 5.2(b) shall be automatically expanded to include the New Capsid Variants and all fields of use;

(iii) uniQure shall, within [***] ([***]) days after the effective date of such termination, return or cause to be returned to 4DMT, copies of all 4DMT’s Confidential Information and 4DMT Intellectual Property and all Materials provided by 4DMT; except that uniQure may retain one copy of the 4DMT Confidential Information solely for legal archive purposes;

(iv) 4DMT shall, within [***] ([***]) days after the effective date of such termination, return or cause to be returned to uniQure, copies of all uniQure’s Confidential Information and uniQure Intellectual Property and all Materials provided by uniQure, except that 4DMT may retain one copy of uniQure’s Confidential Information solely for legal archive purposes and to exercise the licenses granted to 4DMT which survive termination or are granted upon termination of this Agreement; and

(v) For a period of [***] ([***]) months, if termination occurs after Regulatory Approval of Royalty Bearing Products, uniQure and its Affiliates shall be entitled to finish work in progress and to sell any of the Royalty Bearing Products remaining in inventory in accordance with the terms of this Agreement to the extent such Royalty Bearing Products were being sold in the Territory at the time of termination, provided that such sales shall be subject to the royalty provisions of this Agreement.

- 56 -

10.4 Effect of Expiration or Termination; Survival.

(a) Expiration or termination of this Agreement shall not relieve the Parties of any obligation accruing prior to such expiration or termination. Any expiration or termination of this Agreement shall be without prejudice to the rights of either Party against the other accrued or accruing under this Agreement prior to expiration or termination, including the obligation to pay royalties for Royalty Bearing Product(s) sold prior to such expiration or termination. Termination of this Agreement shall be in addition to, and shall not prejudice, the Parties’ remedies at law or in equity, including the Parties’ ability to receive legal damages or equitable relief with respect to any breach of this Agreement, regardless of whether or not such breach was the reason for the termination.

(b) The provisions of ARTICLE I, ARTICLE VII (but not Sections 7.4(c) nor 7.6-7.9), ARTICLE VIII, ARTICLE XI, ARTICLE XII, and Sections 4.5, 5.2(b), 5.4, 5.5, 5.6, 9.4, 9.5, 9.6, 9.7, 9.8, 9.9, 9.10, 10.3 and 10.4 shall survive any expiration or termination of this Agreement, and with respect to those Royalty Bearing Products in such countries for which uniQure retains a Development and Commercialization license after the expiration or termination of this Agreement, the provisions of ARTICLE VI shall also survive as to uniQure Products in such countries.

ARTICLE XI

DISPUTE RESOLUTION

11.1 Seeking Consensus. If any dispute arises out of, in connection with or related to this Agreement, including disputes over the interpretation, performance, enforcement or breach of this Agreement, including any dispute that is not within the jurisdiction of the JRSC, (a “Dispute”), excluding any dispute resolved in accordance with Section 2.3(c) (subject to Section 2.3(d)), then upon the written request of either Party, the matter shall be referred to the Executives, who shall meet in a good faith effort to resolve the dispute within [***] ([***]) days. If the Parties’ Executives cannot agree on a resolution of the Dispute within such [***] ([***]) day period, then it shall be resolved pursuant to the remaining provisions of this ARTICLE XI.

11.2 Arbitration. If the Parties do not fully settle a Dispute pursuant to Section 2.3 (only as to those matters that may be referred to arbitration) or 11.1, as applicable, and a Party wishes to pursue the matter, each such Dispute that is not an Excluded Claim (as defined below) shall be finally resolved by binding arbitration in accordance with the Rules of Arbitration of the ICC (International Chamber of Commerce) and judgment on the arbitration award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof.

(a) The arbitration shall be conducted by a panel of three (3) persons. Within [***] ([***]) days after initiation of arbitration, each Party shall select one person to act as arbitrator and the two Party-selected arbitrators shall select a third arbitrator within [***] ([***]) days after their appointment. If the arbitrators selected by the Parties are unable or fail to agree upon the third arbitrator, the third arbitrator shall be appointed by the ICC. The place of arbitration shall be New York City, New York, and all proceedings and communications shall be in English.

(b) Either Party may apply to the arbitrators for interim injunctive relief until the arbitration award is rendered or the Dispute is otherwise resolved. Either Party also may, without waiving any remedy under this Agreement, seek from any court having jurisdiction any injunctive or provisional relief necessary to protect the rights or property of that Party pending the arbitration award. The scope of the authority of the arbitrators shall be limited to the strict application of law. The arbitrators shall have no authority to award punitive or any other type of damages not measured by a Party’s compensatory damages, except as permitted by Section 9.10. Each Party participating in an arbitration pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall, [***]. The arbitrators shall have the power to award recovery of all costs (including reasonable attorney’s fees, administrative fees, arbitrators’ fees and court costs) to the prevailing Party.

(c) Neither Party shall be required to give general discovery of documents, but may be required to produce documents or testimony that are relevant or considered relevant by the arbitrators to the Dispute. It is the objective and intent of the Parties that any arbitration proceeding be conducted in such a manner that a decision will be rendered by the arbitrators within [***] ([***]) days after the third arbitrator is appointed to the panel, and the Parties and the panel selected in the manner provided above will adopt rules and procedures intended to implement such objective and intent.

(d) Except to the extent necessary to confirm or vacate an award or as may be required by Law (including applicable securities laws or the rules of any stock exchange on which a Party’s securities may then be listed), neither a Party nor an arbitrator may disclose the existence, content, or results of arbitration without the prior written consent of both Parties. In no event shall arbitration be initiated after the date when commencement of a legal or equitable proceeding based on the dispute, controversy or claim would be barred by the applicable New York statute of limitations.

(e) The Parties agree that any payment made pursuant to this Agreement pending resolution of the Dispute shall be refunded or credited if the arbitrators or court determines that such payments are not due.

As used in this Section 11.2, the term “Excluded Claim” shall mean a Dispute that concerns (a) the validity, enforceability, scope or infringement of a patent, trademark or copyright; or (b) any antitrust, anti-monopoly or competition law or regulation, whether or not statutory.

ARTICLE XII

12.2 Waiver. Waiver by a Party of a breach hereunder by the other Party shall not be construed as a waiver of any succeeding breach of the same or any other provision. No delay or omission by a Party to exercise or avail itself of any right, power or privilege that it has or may have hereunder shall operate as a waiver of any right, power or privilege by such Party. No waiver shall be effective unless made in writing with specific reference to the relevant provision(s) of this Agreement and signed by a duly authorized representative of the Party granting the waiver.

12.4 Entire Agreement; Amendment. This Agreement (including its Exhibits and Schedules) contains the complete understanding of the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior understandings and writings relating to such subject matter. In particular, it supersedes and replaces the Prior Confidentiality Agreement and any and all term sheets relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and exchanged between the Parties or their Affiliates prior to the Effective Date. No amendment, change or addition to this Agreement will be effective or binding on either Party unless reduced to writing and duly executed on behalf of both Parties.

12.5 Headings. Headings in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall not be considered in construing this Agreement.

12.6 Severability. If any provision or portion thereof in this Agreement is for any reason held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the same shall not affect any other portion of this Agreement, as it is the intent of the Parties that this Agreement shall be construed in such fashion as to maintain its existence, validity and enforceability to the greatest extent possible. In any such event, this Agreement shall be construed as if such clause of portion thereof had never been contained in this Agreement, and there shall be deemed substituted therefor such provision as will most nearly carry out the intent of the Parties as expressed in this Agreement to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law.

12.7 Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any right or obligation hereunder may be assigned or otherwise transferred by any Party without the consent of the other Party; provided, however, that any Party may, without such consent, assign this Agreement, in whole or in part: (a) to any of its respective Affiliates; provided that the assigning Party shall remain jointly and severally liable with such Affiliate in respect of all obligations so assigned, or (b) to any successor in interest by way of merger, acquisition or sale of all or substantially all of its assets to which this Agreement relates (an “M&A Event”). Any assignment not in accordance with this Section 12.7 shall be void. Each Party agrees that, notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, neither the assignment of this Agreement by a Party in connection with an M&A Event, nor the occurrence of such M&A Event (whether or not a formal assignment of this Agreement occurs), shall provide the non-assigning Party with rights or access to any intellectual property or technology of the acquirer of the assigning Party or its Affiliates that were not Affiliates of the assigning Party prior to such M&A Event. If uniQure assigns its rights and obligations hereunder to an Affiliate or Third Party outside the United States or The Netherlands pursuant to this Section 12.7, and if such Affiliate or Third Party shall be required by applicable Law to withhold additional taxes from or in respect of any amount payable under this Agreement as a result of such assignment, then any such amount payable under this Agreement shall be increased to take into account the additional taxes withheld as may be necessary so that, after making all required withholdings, 4DMT receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such assignment been made.

12.8 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. Signatures provided by facsimile transmission or in Adobe Portable Document Format (PDF) sent by electronic mail shall be deemed to be original signatures.

12.9 Force Majeure. No Party shall be liable for failure of or delay in performing obligations (other than payment obligations) set forth in this Agreement, and no Party shall be deemed in breach of its obligations, if such failure or delay is due to a natural disaster, explosion, fire, flood, tornado, thunderstorm, hurricane, earthquake, war, terrorism, riot, embargo, loss or shortage of power, labor stoppage, substance or material shortage, events caused by reason of laws of any Governmental Authority, events caused by acts or omissions of a Third Party or any other cause reasonably beyond the control of such Party, if the Party affected gives prompt notice of any such cause to the other Party. The Party giving such notice shall thereupon be excused from such of its obligations hereunder as it is thereby disabled from performing for so long as it is so disabled, provided, however, that such affected Party commences and continues to use its Commercially Reasonable Efforts to cure such cause.

12.10 Third Party Beneficiaries. None of the provisions of this Agreement shall be for the benefit of or enforceable by any Third Party, other than a 4DMT Indemnitee under Section 9.5 or uniQure Indemnitee under Section 9.6. No such Third Party shall obtain any right under any provision of this Agreement or shall by reason of any such provision make any claim in respect of any debt, liability or obligation (or otherwise) against either Party.

12.11 Relationship of the Parties. Each Party shall bear its own costs incurred in the performance of its obligations hereunder without charge or expense to the other, except as expressly provided in this Agreement. Neither Party shall have any responsibility for the hiring, termination or compensation of the other Party’s employees or for any employee compensation or benefits of the other Party’s employees. No employee or representative of a Party shall have any authority to bind or obligate the other Party for any sum or in any manner whatsoever, or to create or impose any contractual or other liability on the other Party without said other Party’s approval. For all purposes, and notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the legal relationship under this Agreement of each Party to the other Party shall be that of independent contractor. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to establish a relationship of partners or joint ventures between the Parties.

12.12 Performance by Affiliates. To the extent that this Agreement imposes obligations on Affiliates of a Party or permits a Party to exercise its rights or perform its obligations through its Affiliates, such Party agrees to cause its Affiliates to perform such obligations and shall guarantee performance of this Agreement by its Affiliates. If any disagreement arises out of the performance of this Agreement by an Affiliate of a Party, or the alleged failure of an Affiliate to comply with the conditions and obligations of this Agreement, the Party seeking to resolve such dispute shall have the right do so directly with the other Party, without any obligation to first pursue an action against, or recovery from, the Affiliate which is alleged to have caused a breach of this Agreement.

12.13 Construction. Each Party acknowledges that it has been advised by counsel during the course of negotiation of this Agreement, and, therefore, that this Agreement shall be interpreted without regard to any presumption or rule requiring construction against the Party causing this Agreement to be drafted. Any reference in this Agreement to an ARTICLE, Section, subsection, paragraph, clause, or Schedule shall be deemed to be a reference to any article, section, subsection, paragraph, clause, schedule or exhibit, of or to, as the case may be, this
